Overview
A co-ordinated approach to eliminating the threat of invasive wild boar, this program features:
- expanded surveillance and trapping
- crop insurance
The Inspection and Investigation Section is responsible for the administration of the Wild Boar Control Program under the authority of the Agricultural Pest Act and Pest and Nuisance Control Regulation.
What you can do
Albertans can get informed by learning:
- about wild boar at large and the dangers they pose to animals, crops and the environment
- how to recognize signs of wild boar activity
Surveillance is key to eliminating the threat of invasive wild boar in Alberta. We are asking for Albertans’ help and partnership to protect our province’s land, animals, people, agriculture and ecosystems. If you see a wild boar or signs of their activity: Report wild boar.
Apply for compensation
Farmers can now claim wild boar damage as part of the Agriculture Financial Services Corporation’s (AFSC) expanded Wildlife Damage Compensation Program.
